Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in interventional diagnosis and treatment of borderline coronary artery disease. Methods Sixteen 40%-70% angiographically stenotic lesions from 15 patients were enrolled in the current study. Intravascular OCT was applied to each lesion after informed consent was obtained to evaluate stenosis percentage, size of lipid core, thickness of fibrous cap, existence of plaque rupture, and presence of thrombosis or calcification. Therapeutic strategies were made according to OCT outcomes as well as clinical symptoms and electrocardiographic changes. Stent coverage, apposition, and tissue prolapse between stent struts were determined in the patients undertaken percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Results Qualitative OCT images were obtained in 14 lesions. Ten lesions were greater than 50% stenosis, with large lipid core and fibrous cap thinner than 65 ?m, and plaque ruptures were noted in 2 of the lesions. PCI were performed in these 10 lesions. Two lesions underwent predilatation and significant intima tearings and dissections were detected with OCT. Repeated OCT after stent implantation showed complete coverage in all 10 lesions. Focal incomplete apposition were noted in 2 lesions. Significant tissue prolapse occurred in 3 lesions and segmental incomplete deployment of stent in 2 lesions. The remaining 4 lesions had small lipid cores, thick fibrous caps but with no plaque ruptures, thus PCI was not performed. Conclusion Intracoronary OCT is an effective tool to determine features of coronary lesions. It plays an important role in diagnosis of vulnerable lesions, strategy-making in treating borderline coronary artery disease and evaluation of immediate result of PCI.

Objective To determine the effect of age,body figure and risk framing in making treatment decision for female patients with breast cancer.Methods Two groups of healthy female:one group of 60 female ages 18-24 from undergraduate student and the other group of 60 female ages 35-60 from the university community.Healthy women imagined that they had been diagnosed with breast cancer and received information regarding lumpectomy versus mastectomy and recurrence rates.Participants indicated whether they would choose lumpectomy or mastectomy and reasons.Results The different concern levels of body appearance between younger and older women influences treatment selection of lumpectomy versus mastectomy.Facing the risk information,older women were unlikely to select the breast conserving operation.Conclusions The factors of age and the attention to body figure would effect the choice of breast conserving operation or mastectomy.Risk information on the selection of treatment would not affected directly,but the effects of risk information on younger and older female is different.Nurses should provide the age-appropriate information who recently have been diagnosed with breast cancer regarding treatment alternatives to ensure their active participation in the decision-making process,female who have different levels of investment in body figure also may have different concerns about treatment,and should be alert on empathetic of such concerns.

Objective To explore the correlation between wide QRS of transesophageal atrial pacing (TEAP) and implicit ventricular pre-excitation.Methods 77 patients tested by TEAP were divided into two groups according to the ECG results .45 patients in group Ⅰhad normal electrocardiogram .32 patients in group Ⅱhad ven-tricular pre-excitation.In group Ⅰ,TEAP results showed that electric pulse wave (S wave) was followed by intermit-tent or continuous wide QRS complex .At the same time , the results of group Ⅰ were compared with the results of groupⅡ.Results (1)The patients of group Ⅰwere excluded the presence of concealed accessory pathway by intra-cavitary electrocardiographic test,among them 20 patients (group ⅠA) were ventricular pacing,the test results dis-played that S wave was followed by wide QRS complex exhibiting a pattern of right bundle branch block ( RBBB) ,SR interval was 0 s;SR intervals of 25 patients (groupⅠB) were not fixed,SR interval was (0.07 ±0.01)s,S wave had no concern with QRS wave ,the wide QRS complex was premature ventricular contraction ,QRS wave shapes were dif-ferent according to the different sites of pacing origin .(2)In groupⅡ,the test results displayed that S wave was close-ly followed by the atrial depolarization wave P ,and there was a wide QRS complex with pre-excitation wave at the be-ginning after a atrioventricular conduction time shorter than normal ,SR interval was fixed ,SR interval was (0.08 ±0. 03)s,at the same time,different parts of accessory pathway QRS complex had different morphological characteristics . (3) SR interval of ⅠA group compared with groupⅠB and groupⅡ,the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.97,3.02,all P<0.05);SR interval had no statistically significant difference between group ⅠB and groupⅡ(t=2.66,P>0.05).Conclusion When TEAP displaying pacing wide QRS complex ,in order to avoid bringing misdiag-nosis,TEAP results should be analyzed comprehensively rather than blindly believing that the reason was concealed accessory pathway .

Background and purpose:DOC-2 serves as one of the tumor suppressing genes in human ovarian cancer and plays a role in the process of cell growth and differentiation.This study was to investigate the role of DOC-2 in the TGF? signal pathway and verification of the interaction between DOC-2 and TGF?Ⅲ receptor.Methods:The bait vector was constructed by inserting the PID domain of DOC-2(nDOC-2)into yeast express vector pGBKT7.pGBKT7-nDOC2 was transformed into the yeast AH109 and confirmed to be expressed.After the human foetus brain cDNA library had been transformed,the positive clones was screened by both nutrition defect medium and X-?-gal.The putative positive clones were sequenced and analyzed to get the DOC-2 interactive proteins.Furthermore,after the DOC-2 cDNA and TGF?Ⅲ receptor cDNA had been co-transfected into the human ovarian cancer cell line HO-8910 together,the interaction between DOC-2 and TGF?Ⅲ receptor was investigated by immunoprecipitation and Western blot.Results:21 putative positive clones were picked after being screened and sequenced.Three of them were identified as Homo sapiens partial mRNA for betaglycan(TBR Ⅲ gene),homo sapiens protocadherin gamma subfamily C3(PCDHGC3)and APLP1(amyloid beta precursor-like protein 1).The analysis by immunoprecipitation and Western blot showed that the interaction between DOC-2 and TGF?Ⅲ receptor could form protein complex.Conclusions:The three encoding proteins might participate in the DOC-2 signal pathway.DOC-2 might play as an essential role in the TGF?signal pathway by interacting with TGF?Ⅲ receptor.

Hearts from eight adult dogs were perfused through both coronary arteries with methylmethacrylate. Small specimens cut out from the left ventricular wall were eroded in 50% HCL for 5-7 days. The replicas were studied under the SEM (S-450). The main results were outlined as follows: The subendocardial capillary plexus composed of varied shapes and orientation of meshes was present. The capillary network of the myocardial layers was consisted of many parallel capillaries and between them a variety of models of anastomoses, such as "H" "K" and "8" modes etc, were observed. In our findings, it was demonstrated that the arteriole and venule were distributed between the myocardial bundles and their direction was often perpendicular to the myocardial bundles. The postcapillary venules were poured into venule by the "ginger or turnip root" arrangement. The replicas of the Thebesian veins were proved in our specimens. The A-V shunting was not observed.
